I understand that one must modify one of the bolt holes in the 360 magnum flex plate to fit the bolt pattern of an A904 torque converter. As the picture below from one of the tutorials describes, one just uses a rat tail file to open up the one of the holes that doesn't align. So I did that...

OK, so on my slant six I was running a 3 ohm Pertronix coil, no ballast resistor, with factory mopar electronic ignition. I'm swapping to a v8, and I read on the Pertronix website that the 3 ohm coil is for 4 and 6 cylinder applications, but for a v8 one should use the 1.5 ohm coil? Am I not...

I believe I read on this board that I can use the B&M 10239 flex plate for the 360 Magnum (with A904). My engine builder says no, I must to a Magnum flex plate. True? Brian

I ordered a water neck (thermostat housing) for my 360 and it has an o-ring for the seal, not the paper gasket. Does anyone know if those O-rings seal good or should do the old fashioned paper gasket with sealant? On paper, the O-ring seems like a good idea, just checking against reality...

Hole on a bulge...what goes there? What's it for? '67 dodge dart firewall...below the heater hose area...

I have an A904 and it's out, I can't remember if the spool mount (open) side of the cross member goes toward the front of the car or back...I plum forgot. I've seen on E-bodies it goes forward, and I've seen on A bodies people orienting toward the rear of the car. Which is it for my A body? Pics?

I'm going to mate a newly rebuilt 360 magnum to my newly rebuilt A904...I've never checked crank to bell housing alignment, what tool or methods do you all use to do that? brian

I finally got my A904 (for small block) and I seem to have the correct inspection cover, it fits perfectly, see pic. My mini-starter also fits the bell housing perfectly. But, the starter and inspection cover don't align properly. Question: do I trim the inspection cover a bit, or is there...

Hi, I've just started installing my tti 2.5" dual exhaust. I don't even have my 360 yet, but I'm redoing the fuel lines and you start the exhaust install from the back, so... Anyway, my question is how close to the gas tank is OK for the passenger side? The driver side looks like there is...

Hi, I had a slant 6 with FiTech 4bbl TBI. I put the FiTech water temp sensor at the head near the thermostat. I also put another temp sensor, for my temp gauge in the dash, on the passenger side of the block, there is a threaded plug down on the side rear of the oil pump that accesses the...

I'm doing a Slant 6 to 360 Magnum swap. I'm using the Schumacher motor mounts, trimming the driver's side slant six k-frame mount, drilling a new bolt hole for the Schumacher mount as per instructions. OK, so the instructions also recommend using a torque strap for "...any high performance...

OK, so I really wanted to pull my slant without taking off the hood....success! I fabricated a custom puller using a 2" x 10" x 1/2" thick chrome moly steel plate (OK, I tend to over engineer), drilled two holes for 3/8" bolts for the two bosses on the head and a big *** bolt (11/16" thread?)...

Hi I currently have a slant six, and over on the SL6 forum the NAPA Gold 1806 oil filter was touted as the best as it has an internal standpipe/check baffle that holds the oil in the filter so it doesn't drain. But I'm switching to 360 mag so what is a good oil filter for this application? Is...

OK, so I built my SL6 using another board's experts over the years, which included a special spring kit and limiting the mechanical advance and using a particular vacuum pod on the distributor. I don't recall all the specifics, but it was starting with a stock super six dizzy and for my mild...

Which way does the oil pump drive to prime it on a small block, clockwise? This is a 360 magnum. Thanks. brian

I use the two threaded bosses on the slant six head to pull the engine. Last time I used an engine puller with a balancer, so I could tilt the engine one way or the other during pull and install. But, I had the hood off. This time, I want to pull the SL6 without removing the hood. As such, I...

Where to folks put their oil pressure sensor on a 360 magnum? I plan to use a 90 degree oil filter adapter, it has a plug, anyone put their sensor there? Brian

Question: what plug boots are the best for a 360 with TTi shorty headers or in general, straight, angled? I currently have the big straight boots MSD wires on my slant 6, but I know every engine is different. Any experiences to share on this subject, pics? Thanks all, Brian

I see there are two braces for the small block that go between the engine and the tranny (A904). First off, does anyone have pics of them installed? Second, do these fit with tti shorty headers? Third, if not, anyone do alternate homemade brackets? thank you all, Brian

Hi, I have a '67 dart with rear drums. It has an 8 3/4 rearend with 10 x 1/3/4 drums. I have front discs, power assisted, on the front. I was thinking of converting to rear discs, as I'm converting from SL6 to 360 Magnum. I'd like to do a kit or whatever is easiest, but not afraid to do...

Hi All, I'm planning my SL6 to 360 magnum swap this year. The SL6 has a few bolts that either go into the oil galley or water jacket, e.g. some of the manifold studs go into the water jacket, one of the alternator bracket bolts goes into the oil galley, one of the water pump bolts as well...

Alas, I love my 225 slant 6, but I am moving on to a 360 Magnum. So, at some point this year, my slant will be up for sale. It was built by DD himself, after I had the block remilled, bored the cylinders (I think .040), and the crank balanced at the shop. New pistons, rings, connecting rods, cam...

I'm sure this has been covered, if so somebody point me to the right thread(s). I'm planning a 360 magnum install into my '67 Dart. The engine will have 350 ish hp and I plan to run headers and dual exhaust. I was considering TTi 1 5/8" shorty headers with 2 1/2" collectors and their off the...

Does the top radiator hose on a 360 run to the driver side on the radiator and the outlet on the bottom of the radiator on the passenger side? That's what I have now with my slant six, I think I have a v8 radiator in there. Thank you.

I was wondering. Many on the forum love their U-joint (I have the Borgeson one), myself included. Pot coupler believers say U joints don't account for flex in the steering system as the pot couplers were designed to do. So, question: why not allow the splines on the steering box end of the U...

I see there are barrel clips for attaching emblems to sheet metal via the posts on the emblems. The clips come in sizes to accommodate 1/8" studs and 3/16" studs. My emblems have 1/8" studs and some sort of adhesive or plastic coating that is 3/16" in diameter. Which barrel nuts do I use? Is...

I'm planning a 360 magnum install in my '67 dart. Will the TCI Streetfighter A904, sku 111300P1 be a proper fitment? I'd rather use an A904 than a 727. Thanks all. brian

I'm rebuilding my '67 Dart auto trans steering column. On the underside of the shift collar I find these little hairpin clips. What are they for? I don't see them in the '67 Moparts diagrams. I'm curious what they could be for, they are simply clipped onto the base of two pot metal buttresses.

Hi All, I have a '67 Dart and I'm about to rebuild my steering column. I had already rebuilt the pot coupler, but my steering column lower bearing was pretty worn out when I got the car, the retainer spring ('67 had this) between the retention collar and the lower bearing finally broke and the...

Perhaps this is well-covered already, but I'm wondering if one runs a PCV valve on the valve cover, and there are two holes, what does one put in the other hole, a breather or an oil fill cap? Some say don't run a breather with a PCV on the same valve cover, others say do it. What's the story...
